I upgraded to vista yesterday and now GBpvr won't download guide data. Also, I have trouble playing recorded Hd video in Gbpvr. Hauppague IR remote does not work. logs attached

hi, I have GB-PVR v1.1.5 installed on WinXp Pro (on a laptop) with a Geniatech T328B USB stick (which uses the AF9015 chipset). The config application sees the USB stick correctly and allows me to match the scanned channels to the EPG channels. When I look at the EPG, it all looks fine (including the extended information from XMLTV Extender) so I am confident that the feed is working correctly.

I have the weather, webcam, logotool and XMLTV extender installed.

The USB Stick correctly recieves and decodes the TV channels when I use the included ArcSoft Totalmedia software - but that's nowhere near as flexible as GB-PVR

When I connect the card up to a good quality antenna, I see a bar graph indicator saying 100% signal strength and 100% signal quality, but no TV images or sound. See below:


I have attached my logs (with the std NativeUtilities.dll (1) and with the version of NativeUtilities.dll (2) that has been suggested in another thread as providing additional logging)

Any help greatfully appreciated

I'm very seriously contemplating getting an ide -> CF converter and buying an 8GB CF card to use as a hard drive for a windows XP PRO SP2 client machine. I am aware of the limited re-writes issue, but I would do the following to reduce that:

- Get rid of the pagefile
- Get rid of system restore
- Turn off as much logging as possible
- Use S3 standby or not turn off the machine

Remember, this would be a client so no recording on it. I would probably still have to worry about International Cinema plugin updates, weather, webcam, and those types of plugins. I figure that it won't be too much of a big deal.

As it is now, I have a significant portion of storage on a NAS (with the exception of PVRX2 recordings - those are local drive on the server)

I would probably strip out a bunch of stuff via nlite on the windows XP install disk beforehand to help with space. Since it's 8GB, I might not even bother with all that.

Curious to see if anyone's done this and what the results were.

I mainly want to try to keep heat and quiet down since this machine will go in the bedroom HDTV setup. I'll probably also go with onboard video. I know I have been warned, but my bedroom HDTV is a 720p LCD and I've read that those x1250/7050 systems can handle that no problem.

I have been having issues for a while with my CTTV listings download working sporadically. Here’s the story - I had things set to automatically download, I check the guide and no details were shown. I then attempted to do it manually and there were no details. I exited PVRX2 and tried again manually and then received schedule information for greater than the 4 days. I am really confused; if someone can take a look at the attached logs and give some recommendations I would really appreciate it.
Also, while searching some of the logs for the word error I found this “Error code : 80004005” I don’t know what is causing this either.

Thanks in advance.

When fast forwarding a recording pvrx2 froze up and stoped responding. Attached is the logs. Wife is a little irratated and says it happens quite often. However, I have not noticed it as much when I am at controls but it does happen sometimes.

i built my gbpvr/server pc about 2 years ago
was told yeah get the board with pci-e slots
meaning i lost 2 pci slots
2 years later i have run out of pci slots for the number of tuners i want/need
the machine is almost past its used by date and still there are very few pci express cards on the market

has anyone used a pci express tuner card or a pci express slot for anything other than collecting dust

its all a bit of a joke the whole pci express been the ducks nuts if you ask me

Is it just me or is it a bit quiet on the forum at the moment. I always jump on to see new posts, etc and there doesn't seem to be much going on?

I'd like to close this thread

I would also like my sub forum Title to be changed from ZTools to

ZTools and UltraXMLTV

Thank you

I'm moving the support thread out of the developers' forum.

Is it possible to sort the list of items in the RSS feed as it comes from EWA?

I would like to use the RSS to provide updates to my LCD using LCD smartie, but with the way things are sorted now I can't find the next item to be recorded.

It would be nice to have an additional parameter:
?filter=pending&sort=date/title/channel
or
?filter=pending&sort=date/title/channel&dir=asc/desc

or something along those lines, so that the first item in the list is the next item to be recorded, the second would be the one after that etc.

This would save me from my current method of using post and para processing batch files to run GBPVRcli to write some information to a text file, read the text file in LCDSmartie, run a second batch file to see if the information has been updated, etc. It runs correctly 90% of the time but every once in a while it tells me I'm recording but doesn't actually show a show title. Overly complex when I could just pull the information from the existing RSS feed.

Thanks,
Joel
